Senior iOS Engineer

Department: Engineering

Location: Abu Dhabi

Employment Type: FullTime

We're building robots, live spatial intelligence, and AI experiences that need to feel just as solid in someone's hand as they do in the field. We're looking for a senior iOS Developer who can take complex applications from idea to shipped product, and who cares about the craft as much as the ship date.

What we're looking for, and why

We need someone with real depth in iOS, 8 to 10 years of it, who's comfortable owning hard technical problems end to end and helping raise the bar for everyone around them. As our products move from idea to things people actually use every day, we need someone who brings both the technical range and the judgment to make the right calls without needing to be told.

What you'll be working on

• Designing, developing, and maintaining advanced iOS applications using Swift and Objective-C

• Working closely with product managers, designers, and backend teams to define, design, and ship new features

• Keeping performance, quality, and responsiveness high across the board

• Finding technical bottlenecks, troubleshooting issues, and fixing bugs effectively

• Helping maintain code quality, organization, scalability, and automation

• Taking part in code reviews and helping the team hold a high bar for development practices

• Sharing what you know and helping other developers on the team grow

• Implementing and maintaining RESTful API integrations

• Contributing to CI/CD pipelines and release management

• Keeping an eye on where mobile development is heading and bringing good ideas back to the team

What makes this role different

Engineering here is flat: no layers between you and the decision, no waiting on a chain of approvals to ship something good. You'll work in person in Abu Dhabi, alongside a small, genuinely international team, often a short walk from robots that are actually deployed and being tested. What you build will be felt immediately, by real users, on real products.

Skills we need

• A bachelor's or master's degree in Computer Science, Engineering, or a related field

• 8 to 10 years of professional iOS development experience

• Strong Swift and Objective-C

• Solid understanding of iOS frameworks like UIKit, CoreData, and CoreAnimation

• Experience with offline storage, threading, and performance tuning

• Familiarity with RESTful APIs and backend service integration

• A real feel for Apple's design principles and interface guidelines

• Git and modern version control workflows

• Experience with performance and memory tuning tools like Instruments

• Familiarity with CI/CD pipelines and deployment practices

• Strong analytical, problem-solving, and debugging instincts

What we're not looking for

This isn't a role for someone who wants a spec handed to them and nothing more, or who'd rather manage the work than build it. If you need a lot of process and structure to do your best work, or you're looking for a remote 9-to-5, this probably isn't the fit.
